< Lunakanawai 2 >
1 HELE mai la ka anela o Iehova, mai Gilegala mai, a i Bokima, i mai la, Ua lawe mai au ia oukou mai Aigupita mai, a ua hookomo mai au ia oukou i ka aina a'u i hoohiki ai i ko oukou mau kupuna. I iho la au, Aole au e uhai i ka'u berita, a hiki loa i ka hopena.
Now the angel of the LORD went up from Gilgal to Bochim and said, “I brought you up out of Egypt and led you into the land that I had promised to your fathers, and I said, ‘I will never break My covenant with you,
2 Mai hana oukou i berita me ka poe e noho ana ma keia aina, e hoohiolo no oukou i ko lakou mau kuahu. Aole oukou i hoolohe i ko'u leo. No ke aha la oukou i hana'i i keia?
and you are not to make a covenant with the people of this land, but you shall tear down their altars.’ Yet you have not obeyed My voice. What is this you have done?
3 Nolaila au i olelo ai, Aole au e kipaku ia lakou, mai ko oukou alo aku, a e lilo lakou i poe enemi no oukou; a e lilo ko lakou mau akua i mea e hihia ai oukou.
So now I tell you that I will not drive out these people before you; they will be thorns in your sides, and their gods will be a snare to you.”
4 A i ka wa i olelo ai ka anela o Iehova i keia mau olelo i na mamo a pau a Iseraela, hookiekie ae la na kanaka i ko lakou leo, uwe iho la.
When the angel of the LORD had spoken these words to all the Israelites, the people lifted up their voices and wept.
5 Kapa aku la lakou i ka inoa o ia wahi, Bokima. A malaila lakou i mohai aku ai no Iehova.
So they called that place Bochim and offered sacrifices there to the LORD.
6 I ka wa i kuu aku ai o Iosua i kanaka, alaila hele aku la kela kanaka keia kanaka o na mamo a Iseraela i kona hooilina iho, a komo i ka aina.
After Joshua had dismissed the people, the Israelites went out to take possession of the land, each to his own inheritance.
7 Malama no na kanaka ia Iehova i na la a pau o Iosua, a i na la a pau o na lunakahiko i ola mahope iho o Iosua, ka poe i ike i na hana nui a pau a Iehova i hana mai ai no ka Iseraela.
And the people served the LORD throughout the days of Joshua and of the elders who outlived him, who had seen all the great works that the LORD had done for Israel.
8 A make iho la o Iosua, ke keiki a Nuna, ke kauwa a Iehova, hookahi no haneri kona mau makahiki me ka umi keu.
And Joshua son of Nun, the servant of the LORD, died at the age of 110.
9 A kanu iho la lakou ia ia ma ke kihi o kona aina, me Timenaheresa, ma ka puu o Eperaima, ma ke kukulu akau o ka puu o Gaasa.
They buried him in the land of his inheritance, at Timnath-heres in the hill country of Ephraim, north of Mount Gaash.
10 Hui pu ia'e la ia hanauna a pau me ko lakou poe makua: a ala mai la kekahi hanauna hou, mahope mai o lakou, aole lakou i ike ia Iehova, aole hoi i na hana ana i hana mai ai no ka Iseraela.
After that whole generation had also been gathered to their fathers, another generation rose up who did not know the LORD or the works that He had done for Israel.
11 Hana hewa aku la na mamo a Iseraela imua o Iehova, a malama lakou ia Baala.
And the Israelites did evil in the sight of the LORD and served the Baals.
12 Haalele lakou ia Iehova, i ke Akua o ko lakou poe makua, i ka mea i lawe mai ai ia lakou mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, a hahai lakou mamuli o na'kua e, i na'kua o ka poe kanaka e noho poai ana ia lakou, a kulou imua o lakou, a hoonaukiuki aku la ia Iehova.
Thus they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt, and they followed after various gods of the peoples around them. They bowed down to them and provoked the LORD to anger,
13 Haalele lakou ia Iehova, a malama iho la ia Baala a me Asetarota.
for they forsook Him and served Baal and the Ashtoreths.
14 Wela iho la ka huhu o Iehova i ka Iseraela, a haawi ae la ia lakou i ka lima o ka poe hao, a hao ae la ia poe i ka lakou, a hoolilo aku oia ia lakou i ka lima o ko lakou poe enemi, e noho poai ana ia lakou, aole hiki ia lakou ke ku hou imua o ko lakou poe enemi.
Then the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He delivered them into the hands of those who plundered them. He sold them into the hands of their enemies all around, whom they were no longer able to resist.
15 Ma na wahi a pau a lakou i hele aku ai, ku e no ka lima o Iehova ia lakou i mea e hewa'i, e like me ka Iehova i hoohiki mai ai ia lakou; a pilikia loa iho la lakou.
Wherever Israel marched out, the hand of the LORD was against them to bring calamity, just as He had sworn to them. So they were greatly distressed.
16 Hoala mai no nae o Iehova i na lunakanawai, a hoola ae la lakou i ka Iseraela mailoko ae o ka lima o ka poe i hao i ka lakou.
Then the LORD raised up judges, who saved them from the hands of those who plundered them.
17 Aole hoi lakou i hoolohe i na lunakanawai; aka, moe kolohe lakou mamuli o na'kua e, a kulou hoomana aku la ia lakou. Haalele koke lakou i ke ala a ko lakou poe makua i hele ai, me ka hoolohe pono i ke kauoha a Iehova; aole hana keia poe pela.
Israel, however, did not listen to their judges. Instead, they prostituted themselves with other gods and bowed down to them. They quickly turned from the way of their fathers, who had walked in obedience to the LORD’s commandments; they did not do as their fathers had done.
18 A i ka wa i hoala mai ai o Iehova i na lunakanawai no lakou, alaila, noho pu o Iehova me ka lunakanawai, a hoola no ia ia lakou, mai ka lima ae o ko lakou poe enemi, i na la a pau o ia lunakanawai; no ka mea, minamina o Iehova, no ko lakou kaniuhu ana i ka hoopilikiaia, a me ka hookaumahaia mai.
Whenever the LORD raised up a judge for the Israelites, He was with that judge and saved them from the hands of their enemies while the judge was still alive; for the LORD was moved to pity by their groaning under those who oppressed them and afflicted them.
19 A i ka wa i make ai ka lunakanawai, hoi hou no lakou, a oi aku no ko lakou hewa mamua o ko lakou poe makua, ma ka hahai ana mamuli o na'kua e, e malama ia lakou, a e kulou hoomana ia lakou. Aole lakou i hooki iki i ka lakou hana, aole i ko lakou aoao paakiki.
But when the judge died, the Israelites became even more corrupt than their fathers, going after other gods to serve them and bow down to them. They would not give up their evil practices and stubborn ways.
20 Wela iho la ka huhu o Iehova i ka Iseraela, i ae la ia, No ka hehi ana o keia poe kanaka maluna o ka'u berita, a'u i kauoha aku ai i ko lakou poe makua, aole hoi i hoolohe i ko'u leo;
So the anger of the LORD burned against Israel, and He said, “Because this nation has transgressed the covenant I laid down for their fathers and has not heeded My voice,
21 Nolaila, aole au e kipaku hou, mai ko lakou alo aku, i kekahi o ko na aina a Iosua i waiho ai i kona make ana.
I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.
22 I hoao aku ai au i ka Iseraela ma o lakou la, i malama paha lakou i ka aoao o Iehova, e hele malaila, e like me ka malama ana o ko lakou poe makua, aole paha.
In this way I will test whether Israel will keep the way of the LORD by walking in it as their fathers did.”
23 Waiho no o Iehova i ko ia mau aina, aole ia i kipaku koke aku ia lakou; aole hoi i haawi mai ia lakou i ka lima o Iosua.
That is why the LORD had left those nations in place and had not driven them out immediately by delivering them into the hand of Joshua.
